Iām going to assume this is for the bigger ask thing just cause.
1. When was the last time you changed your opinion/belief about something major?
This is probably going to sound stupid but I remember reading this thing about our brains being basically just organic quantum computers and that when we die, all of ourĀ āinformationā travels to another universe or something like that. It just feels better than thinking that nothing happens and it seems (somehow) more realistic than the whole heaven thing. Iām not saying I 100% believe it, but for right now it keeps me from freaking out too much when I think about death.
2. How do you hope youāll change as a person in the future?
I hope I get better at getting over myself and just doing things. I canāt wait to get out of the hormone driven nightmare of puberty. Iām at like, the tail end but thereās still some growing to do.
3. What keeps you up at night?
God, what doesnāt? Cringy shit, regrets, self loathing, fears/anxiety, ideas about things. I have to have a video playing or something to distract myself enough to fall asleep. Unless someone else is there with me.
4. Whatās the most surprising self-realization youāve had?
I thought I was actually getting better at some things but it turns out I can relapse really fucking easily and I kind of hate myself that much more for it.
5. Whatās the most illegal thing youāve done?
I dunno, I guess smoked weed?
6. What lie do you tell most often?
I know this sounds super emo but honestly probably,Ā āIām fine.ā Everyoneās been kind of walking on eggshells around me for a while and they keep asking me that. I donāt have the energy or heart to answer them truthfully every time.
7. What do you regret not doing?
A whole bunch of shit. I regret not NOT cheating on someone special. I regret not going to counseling earlier in my life. I regret not spending more time with my oldest sister. I regret not being more social in school. I regret not doing a lot.
8. What gives your life meaning?
God, I really donāt know right now. I canāt think really of anything. Iām kind of useless.
9. What do you most often look down on people for? What do you think other people look down on you for?
I think the thing I find myself looking down on people for most often would be not keeping their word for shitty reasons. I think people look down on me for being lazy and unmotivated and directionless.
10. What bridges do you regret not burning?
Iāve never had that many bridges and the ones that I wanted to burn have been burned, as well as ones I didnāt want burned. But I guess I regret not burning bridges sooner with Christi (aĀ āfriendā). Really I think thatās it. I donāt have any beef with anyone per se.
11. What are you most insecure about?
Fuck, thatās kind of tough. Iām insecure about a lot of things. But I think the one Iām MOST insecure about would either be my weight/physical appearance or my social awkwardness.
12. How do you get in the way of your own success?
Oh, I self sabotage all the fucking time.Ā
13. Whatās one thing you did that you really wish you could go back and undo?
This goes back to the regret thing. I know Iāve answered similar questions like this with this answer like 10 times but itās always the same. The thing I regret most (so far) is cheating on Jessi a while back. Thatās my lowest point. I would go back and relive all my edgy emo adolescent years over and over again if it meant I never cheated on her. It was an awful, trust destroying, hurtful thing. I became the worst version of myself and I can never apologize enough. So if youāre some horny dumbass motherfucker out there and you happen to read this or whatever, DO NOT FUCKING DO IT YOU WET PAPER BAG OF DOGSHIT. Itās not fucking worth it, itās never fucking worth it. All you do is destroy peopleās trust in anyone they might date in the future. Like, it seriously one of the most fucked on things you can do to a person. Donāt fucking do it. Control your god damn emotions and hormones you simple minded fuck.
14. What are you afraid people see when they look at you?
Cheater, waste of space, useless, creep, pathetic.
15. What was the best compliment youāve received?
Iāve been told my eyes are nice.
16. As the only human left on Earth, what would you do?
Pee on anything I wanted. I could fucking pee on the Declaration of Independence if I wanted to. I would be incredibly lonely and I wouldnāt last long on my own. But Iād find solace in the fact that I could pee on anything I damn well please.Ā
17. Who inspires you to be better?
At the moment, pretty much no one. I guess Iām just trying to inspire myself. So you can imagine how well thatās going.
18. What do you want your epitaph to be?
I have no clue.Ā āThis dumbass is feeding the grass.ā
19. What did you think you would grow out of but havenāt?
I never really imagined myself growing out of anything except some bad habits. Some of them I have and some of them I havenāt. But I still watch cartoons and stuff if thatās what you mean.
20. In what situation or place would you feel the most out of place in?
I guess Iād feel most out of place in some huge religious gathering thing. Like a church camp or something. Everyoneās just super sure of their beliefs and really positive there. That or maybe some anti-abortion rally. Like a Trump rally.
21. Whatās the dumbest thing youāve done that actually turned out pretty well?
I dunno. I spelunked into a cave once without a shirt or shoes on and that turned out fine. I accidentally ramped off a dirt mound on a 4 wheeler when I was younger and I landed it.Ā
22. They say that everyone has a book in them. What would your book be about?
Iāve never heard that saying but I guess it makes sense. Maybe just a big ole pile of mistake pancakes. Iād call it Trial and Error and Error and Error.
23. What is something you will NEVER do again?
Well hopefully, cheat. Iāll probably never spelunk without a shirt or definitely shoes again.Ā
24. What do you spend the most time thinking about?
Relationships or shit Iāve done wrong. If Iām not careful it easily turns into thinking about death and eternity.Ā
25. What are some of the events in your life that made you who you are?
My brothers being born, I guess. Being friends with the people Iām friends with. Dating the people I dated. Joining band and picking up musical instruments.Ā
26. What do you wish your brain was better at doing?
Honestly, fucking anything. I mean, itās pretty good at freaking the fuck out and dropping everything to have a depression fest, so maybe not that. I guess I wish it was better at expressing emotion and dealing with that shit.
27. Where are two types of people in this would. What are the two types?
I have no idea what that first bit is trying to say. But I think I get the gist. There are two types of people in this world: those who put the world into black and white categories and those who do not.
28. What is the strangest thing you have come across?
Besides things on the internet, I remember going into this bookstore and this guy cornered me at this thing I wanted to look at and started babbling complete nonsense about being in the CIA and aliens and God and having superpowers and stuff. He was old and was missing teeth. The people I was with ditched me as soon as they could so I was stuck with this guy for what felt like an hour. It was really weird.
29. What ist something you are certain you will never experience?
Like any hard drugs. I just really never want to try any of it. I will hopefully never have to experience murdering someone. Iāll never experience a lot of things.
30. What dumb accomplishment are you most proud of?
I actually cleaned my room really well last week and I felt good about it.
31. If you could make one rule that everyone had to follow, what rule would you make?
Complete, brutal honesty.
32. What are you addicted to?
Gummi candies and pleasure drives.
33. What stereotype do you completely live up to?
Iāve always honed in on my Jew sense for finding coins or things of value.Ā
34. What is something you can never seem to finish?
That darn Satanic ritual in the bottom of the well. Iām just really bad with Latin pronunciation. Youād think Satan wouldnāt be such a stickler for those kind of things. And also, drawings/music pieces.
35. As you get older, what are you becoming more and more afraid of?
Mortality and being alone.
36. What is one of your favourite smells?
Fresh clothes. I always end up liking the smell of whoever Iām dating at the time. I like how some of my old instrument cases smell. Of course old books, who doesnāt like that?Ā
37. What would be the scariest monster you could imagine?
Really really really really big and ambiguous with a deep thundering kind of roar that makes you think thereās an earthquake before you really hear it.
38. What song or artist do you like but rarely admit to liking?
I do like Ghost TownāsĀ āBlack Moonā but Iād never bring that up myself and only like two people I personally know have any idea that itās in my list. Now you know.Ā
39. What would you do if you knew you were going to die in one hour?
Spend it with everyone Iāve loved in my life including family, friends, exes, and old band mates. Just say goodbye and hang out.
40. What book impacted you the most?
Everyone could probably say this but All the Bright Places was impactful.Ā The Good Inn was pretty good too.Ā
41. If you had to change your name, what would you change it to?
I dunno, maybe like Wyatt so my nickname could by Why.
42. If life is a game, like some people say, what are some of the rules?
No cheating seems to be a theme here.Ā
43. Who is/was your most interesting friend?
Most interesting? I donāt really know. Interesting isnāt really something I look to describe any of my friends. Not that they arenāt interesting necessarily. I guess maybe Tanis was interesting.
44. Have you ever given to any charities?
Iāve donated clothes and stuff a bunch of times.
45. What is something that your friends would consider āso youā?
The Front Bottoms, dark reds like burgundy or maroon, gummi candy, Jewness, something old and cool, something generally ugly or creepy like a horrible looking driftwood frog next to an equally horrible mushroom screwed to a plate that they found at a thrift store.Ā
46. What risks are worth taking?
Talking to people in general, like breaking the silence on something or meeting new people. Itās worth the anxiety to to gain a better or new relationship with someone. Iām trying to work up the nerve to break the silence with a few people. Mainly because Iāve been feeling that life is too short to leave things unsaid.
47. What can you not get right, no matter how many times you try?
Apparently, relationships.Ā
48. If you could convince everyone in the world to do one thing at one point in time, what would that thing be?
I donāt know, I havenāt experienced much. Iām not exactly the leading authority on taking chances. I guess everyone should take a spontaneous day trip just out of nowhere. Like maybe donāt bring anything but whatever you have with you and a charger for your phone and see how it goes.
49. What do you take for granted?
50. What would be some of the most annoying things about having yourself as a roommate?
Iām not great at doing the dishes.

The people youāre with and the experiences you make.
60. What do you strongly suspect but have no proof of?

Honestly, I couldnāt say right now. Itās been a while.

Probably my first car. It was an old Volkswagen Beetle, my dream car. But we had to sell it so maybe this stuffed sheep someone made for me.
64. What chapters would you separate your autobiography into?
This is kind of pathetic and unhealthy, I know, but probably by the partners Iāve had. I was different with each one and learned a lot with them.Ā

66. What do you hope your last words will be?

70. If you were put into solitary confinement for six months, what would you do to stay sane?
Can I bring anything with me? Or am I in like a sponge room? I mean, I can keep myself pretty occupied by myself but I dunno how it would go if itās just me in there.
71. Whatās something horrible that everyone should try at least once?
Maybe like a really bad food. Like try something you think you donāt like just to see if thereās a change.Ā
72. What fact are you resigned to?
That Iām going to be bald in like 10 years. All the guys on both sides of my family have little to no hair and it starts early so Iāll be bald soon.
73. Have you ever saved someoneās life?
Iāve talked a few people down from stuff but I donāt know if that really counts.

85. If you could make a 20 second phone call to yourself at any point in your life present or future, when would you call and what would you say?
This is kind of tough. Either back to before Brianna died to warn me or back to before I cheated to fucking talk myself out of it.

99. What do you wish you could tell yourself 10 years ago? What do you think youāll want to tell your current self 10 years from now?
